Finding the right furnishings

Mid-July, four staff members visited the exhibitor hall at the American Library Association Convention to learn more about products available to libraries. This was a great chance to meet many vendors of library products in one place at one time. We tried out chairs, tables, and desks, and found out about shelving and storage options. It was valuable to get ideas of what may work in the new library building, and to explore the comfort, quality and versatility of a variety of products.
